Faster card meaning better FPS? Not necessarily. There are a lot of variables that determine how well a video card performs -- drivers, game optimization, and many other things contribute to performance. The other parts of a build can affect the bottom line (FPS) as well.

The RX 480 and GTX 1060 perform pretty much the same, with the GTX 1060 doing a bit better in some DX11 games and the RX 480 murdering in DX12. If you don't plan to upgrade for a while, then I am of the opinion that the RX 480 is the superior card. Also, the 8GB 480 is usually cheaper than the 6GB 1060 variant.
